Illin’ & Chillin’


Nothing like battling the common cold during a prolonged heatwave, eh? Oh, the misery! Fatigue has definitely set in, and personal judgment cannot be trusted at this point in time. Doubt and vacillation have disrupted any semblance of order.

After major procrastination, the sum of $25,000 was transferred to the local bank. A lot of “hand-wringing” preceded the transaction. What has become clearly obvious is that the denial of death is the basis of all financial decisions. Even though the fallacy of such thinking was exposed previously in Notes, the thought process remains unchanged.

There has been a “dragging of feet” insofar as the purchase of the future homeless motorhome is concerned. The representative at the Ford® dealership suggested that a cash deposit be made to reserve the “pre-owned” Transit cargo van. No such action was taken. It is as if there is a secret desire to see the cargo van sold to someone else. Why? Well, there are many doubts about the feasibility of the entire “vandweller” concept as it pertains to a local implementation.

On a side note, a conversation with Junior, another gym buddy, revealed that he is residing at Island West Apartments at the edge of Kalihi. His rent is $700 per month for a studio. That’s about the lowest rent on the island. There was some thought about pursuing rental housing there, but other details about the place were disturbing. The tenants are mostly ex-convicts and Micronesians. Yeah, the homeless motorhome is looking better all the time.
